Re: rights necessary to read the event log

Hello,

In general, if you want to connect to another computer via the Event Viewer
and read the events there, you may need to be a member of the Domain Admins
group to perform this procedure. The detailed information is listed in the
following articles:

Connect to another computer in Event Viewer:
http://technet2.microsoft.com/windowsserver/en/library/c9981a01-2285-44c7-9d
0e-7d88be9594481033.mspx?mfr=true

However, if you are currently using an un-administrative account, you can
use an administrative account belonging to Domain Admins group when you
select the computer that you want to connect to. This can be done by
selecting the Connect as another user: on the Select Computer dialog box.

We suggest that you use the above method, however, you can try setting
event log security by changing Registry and Group Policy, as listed in the
following article:

How to set event log security locally or by using Group Policy in Windows
Server 2003:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/323076

Please note that we do not suggest that you try this method, as it is
really complicated and may bring some serious problems if you modify the
Registry incorrectly.

Hope this helps.
